"While Labs and poodles were both originally bred for hunting, the labradoodle breeders probably don't use good hunting dogs as their breeding stock. So go with a pure Lab.
Errrr....My F1 LD has 32 champions in her 6 gen pedigree, 26 of them Labs, mainly field champions...
Super duper in the water, one heck of a nose...but we don't hunt.
One thing I have to add here is that English labs are much more mellow...
Field Labs tend to be a bit more hyper, but the trade off is they tend to be much more intelligent than the English.
I bred my girl to a super mellow poodle line & got the most incredible pups!
